From the start to finish I love this song very much. It is a theme song of the movie Vision Quest. The song is about sexual desire between two lovers. Although I was young then when I came to hear this song I do not care. Even my parents …

Tiny Dancer by Elton John is a beautiful song to which every time I listen to it the song still amazes me how soft and beautiful the words are sung. This guy has an awesome voice which lures me to sleep almost every night because that’s how much I …

Overview - Dark Side Of The Moon, the album considered to be Pink Floyd’s best work and one of rock’s greatest albums in history, is primarily a record more on the mellow side, although still a very powerful album. Roger Waters did a lot less songwriting on this album …

She’s Always in my Hair is the B-side to Prince’s 1985 single, Paisley Park. It is an amazing track and has always been my all-time favourite B-side of the Purple One. I used to have the 12″ vinyl back in the day but in a fit of …

I don’t know much about the classic hard rock band UFO but I heard they had Michael Shenker who happens to be the brother of Rudolph Shenker of the Scorpions and they both are amazing guitarists with a very similar style in the way they play. On itunes …

I was looking through the billboard charts in hopes of downloading more new songs that can be added to my playlist, and when I downloaded this at Limewire and played it for the first time, I almost hit “stop” and “delete” but when I fast-forwarded it to the middle …

Skull and Bones is a remarkable record in that on this album Cypress Hill tried something they had never tried before, and yet there is such a strong sense that they know perfectly well what exactly they are doing, as if they had been doing it for years before.
This …

21st Century Breakdown is the title track of the most recent record released by Green Day. The song opens up in a very simple fashion of just acoustic guitar chords coming in and out but the song gradually builds, particularly thanks to Cool’s pounding drum rhythm which gets louder …

“Confinement” is a track off of the Silent Hill 4 Original Soundtrack. The soundtrack was released alongside the game in 2004, and was made by Akira Yamaoka. Yamaoka has always been hailed a musical genius when it comes to making ambient and creepy music/sound effects. As Yamaoka started to …

Of all the bands to come out of the garage-rock revival of the early 2000s, The Strokes were probably the best — at least in their initial effort. Regarded as the then-newest saviors of rock and roll, The Strokes fashioned distinctly post-modern rock and roll. The dueling guitars, a …

Piggy is a song by Nine Inch Nails which appears on their album The Downward Spiral. Something I’ll mention right away is that this song features real drums which is something Nine Inch Nails really don’t do all that often, but more importantly, the drums are pretty important to …

This is the second album of Fall Out Boy that I’ve heard. It’s really good, but for some reason I love the first one (From Under the Cork tree) better. I was watching (guess what…) MTV (again! Is anyone seeing a pattern here?) and I saw the music video …

A british post-rock band that has amazed fans of this genre in recent years with their energetic and noisy style that really doesn’t hold any resemblance to anything in particular, except that it sounds like post-rock of course. Their latest album One Time For All Time was one of …

The Birthday Massacre is an Industrial Rock band from Canada that uses nostalgic synthesizer voices reminiscent of the eighties post punk movement as well as some pretty heavy yet catchy guitar rifts. The members of the band go by the names Chibi, the front woman, Rainbow and Micheal Falcore …

I still have a special love for rock music, but to be honest, there are very few bands that I can honestly say that I am and have ever been a devout fan of. As a teenager I was generally a fan of the music and the way it …

Before The Lobotomy is a song by Green Day which appears on their album 21st Century Breakdown. The song starts off with a clean guitar riff that has a pretty melancholy tone to it and just a sad tone overall. Once Armstrong comes in with the very melodic vocal …

Christina Aguilera first became a huge success with songs like “Genie in a Bottle”. That was back in the late 90’s when she was battling it out with fellow former Mickey Mouse Club star Britney Spears for the spotlight. In my opinion, she has always been the more talented …

I am so in love with this P.S. I Love You Soundtrack. It is so romantic and I enjoy listening to it like so, so much. There are lots of amazing sounds totally and some tracks which I love so much would be In The Beginning, Fortress and …

Hot Stuff is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Black And Blue. Right from the start of the track you definitely get a funk feel out of this song just because of the rhythm of the instruments and then the vocal pattern which Jagger …

Although I am not a fan of R&B and soul music, I know old music groups like “The Spinners” because my parents have been fans of soul music for years before I was born. I also am familiar with the group “The Spinners” because I have heard their …

I am one of those people who used to think that there was nothing better than death metal in its purest form. However, when a friend of mine recommended the Symphonic Black Metal band Dimmu Borgir to me some years ago, I began to reconsider that notion because as …

Factory Girl is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Beggars Banquet. Factory Girl starts off with a nice acoustic guitar pattern which actually reminds me of Led Zeppelin for some reason and then a tabla, an Indian percussion instrument comes in, which further reminds …

A great song by the band Guns N’ Roses off the Use your Illusion 2 album is the song Breakdown. It is a 7 minute song that opens up with a cool Axl Rose signature style whistle intro with banjo played by Slash and then it goes into a …

Nickelback’s album “All The Right Reasons” is my favorite album ever. Honestly, I can’t think of any other album in the world that I like more than this one. What do I feel so strongly about it? The fact that every song on it is great! I don’t mind …

We all know that when it comes down to great singers, gospel singers are among the best. Almost all the major artists out there have their roots in the church. But Anthony Evans is definitely an exception. He is not just a talented singer, but he himself is a …

Killing Time is a cover performed and recorded by Metallica for their record Garage, Inc. I believe that the original version of this song is done by a band known as Sweet Savage, if I remember correctly, but I don’t know their version all that well to be honest …

R. Kelly
“Trapped In The Closet, Part 19″
TP-3 Reloaded
Jive Records
We are now trapped in the church it seems. Part 19 of R. Kelly’s “Trapped in the Closet” series focuses on a very stupid commotion, one that is more retarded than the one between Rosie the nosey neighbor and her husband …

I got the Fender Frontman 10G with a “starter pack” from Guitar Center, which also included a Stratocaster and etc accessories. As suggested, I was pretty new to the guitar and didn’t really need anything massive to practice with. I found no problem entirely using the small 10w amp …

Released in August of 1990 this album caused an uproar at it’s shocking album cover and gruesome brutal lyrics, this album was banned in Germany and shunned by MTV, they got absolutely no airplay and had no help promoting the album, and this hardly slowed the band down, this …

Lullaby For Wayne is a song by Weezer which appears on their self-titled debut record, otherwise known as the Blue Album. Opening up with just some light guitar feedback, the rest of the band soon comes in and establishes a rhythm which is characteristic of Weezer in that a …

It was my daughter’s 16 birthday and she wanted a guitar. We searched all over for the perfect one and finally found it. The one we chose was called an “Eleca” guitar. The sound is incrediable. It’s a rather large guitar but the sound quality makes it irresistable. It …

Electioneering is a song by Radiohead which appears on their third record OK Computer. I’m going to say right away that Electioneering truly isn’t like the rest of the songs on OK Computer, or really like many of the songs by Radiohead for that matter. This isn’t to say …

For a young artist, miley cyrus is pretty talented, she can act and sing. First time I thought that she can’t sing, but after her song, I think its good enough though I don’t like her behaviour, her song is goog enough to listen. Like this one, seven things.
This song …

Sing For Absolution, a track by Muse is certainly the newest Muse track which I find myself currently hooked on. What I will say right now is that the song has an excellent build up throughout the song and demonstrates a nice blend and balance of a more melodic …

It is probably not very often to encounter for a band like the Cure to be criticized, or even to not be praised, but I think that some of their albums are not very good, and this one, their 1979 debut Three Imaginary Boys is such a record.
I think …

I fell in love with David during American Idol and this cd just proves how far his journey has gone. This cd is phenomenal. Theres not many cds where I can say I like every song, this is one of them! Davids voice is so defined, I can always …

Overview - Live/Dead is the first live album put out by The Grateful Dead and it certainly allows fans and listeners to get a glimpse into what a live Dead show is like. I’m not sure about other people, but I know the first thing that I noticed when …

Anyone compiling a collection of the ultimate collection of rock albums has to include this 1977 disc. I can still remember hearing this for the first time and being amazed that bands played like that. The foul language was shocking, especially the rant at the end of …

I love a good soundtrack to a movie. It can really make or break a movie because the songs can set the right mood, add tension, or build suspense. I am usually more of a fan of movies that have amazing soundtracks than ones with music that just doesn’t …

Put a girl in it by Brooks and Dunn is a very good song about how you can do anything but put a girl in it and that makes everything worth it. It’s like she makes all the difference to any situation because a guy needs a girl and …

The Hill Sheep is the second album released by Sledding With Tigers. Although I will say that some of the tracks on this album felt similar to some of the songs that were present on the band’s debut release, No Randy No, I can thankfully say that this album …

Bullet Proof—¦ I Wish I Was is a song by Radiohead which appears on their second record, The Bends. The song opens up with some noise effects before an acoustic guitar pattern comes in and Yorke ultimately comes in for the first verse of the track. Yorke’s vocal delivery …

Dying Days is a song by The Screaming Trees. This song can be found on their album “Dust” and their greatest hits album. I find it kind of ironic that the Screaming Trees have a greatest hits album because they really seem to be an underrated band. Nevertheless I …

The first time I saw and heard of the artist called Pink was when I was still in my earlier days of high school when she was still a fairly new artiste. Now Pink became popular in an age where the popularity of boy and girl pop bands like …

Ebin is a song by Sublime which appears on their debut record 40 Oz. To Freedom. Opening up with a nice bass line, Nowell comes in with a vocal performance which at first seems more like fast spoken word. Although this didn’t win me over initially, Nowell soon starts …

I have to admit that one of my guilty pleasures is listening to the music of Disney stars. Though not usually of the best quality, the music tends to be fairly catchy. Recently, I have become a fan of Selena Gomez. I just purchased her new album, “A Year …
